    Alum. matching door latch handle and window crank (NOT military match)

    I see now in the same internet order place, they have a similar type that cost few bucks more and has at least two set screws that hold into the adapter where the original discussed has only one. Note though on both types the set screws do not work by snugging against the inner adapter, they...
